Students
of anatomy increasingly require sound knowledge of surface anatomy
for their examinations and in preparation for clinical practice. This
is a clear, region by region account of clinically important and readily
identifiable surface anatomy for students of medicine, paramedical
professions, and surgical trainees. Beautifully designed for ease
of learning, it provides short descriptions, line illustrations, and
full colour photos, and detailed notes on the clinical significance
of structures. The author focuses on the essentials.
